Do you think Amazon will continue to build new locations even if the market crashes?

Asked by JLeslie (65450points) March 10th, 2020

Amazon is building a new headquarters in Nashville, and from what I understand it recently opened a new distribution there. New Amazon employees have been moving to Nashville.

The recent stock market tumble makes me wonder if a company like Amazon would be negatively impacted if the stock market continued to decline, or even a failure to recover right away.

Or, do you think Amazon will continue to grow and hire people in the immediate future, even if people start to feel unsure about the economy, and had some personal losses in the stock market.

The coronavirus is very possibly increasing online purchases, I don’t know if that will persist once the illness is no longer a threat.
